I never thought a 70 page script could make me feel so much. Beautifully written and I envy those who got to experience the production!

Absolutely heartbreaking and beautiful. I have goosebumps up my arms after reading the last few pages. If I had been alone, I would have wept from the beginning to the end. An unforgettable read.

I went to see the play not a long time ago and fall in love with the story so I bought the script yesterday.
It's such a bittersweeet play with so pretty words and quote and while reading I could remember the voice of Judi Dench and Ben Whishaw.
I loved it, I loved the play, the story, the sadness and melancholoy, the introspection.
I would love a dvd of the performance which I could watch while reading the script over and over again.

Magnificent and tragic! I just wish I could have seen the play. I keep re-watching the trailer for the play on Youtube and I feel so heart broken that nobody bothered to film this.
Reading this play was incredible and I would really like to know how much of Peter´s and Alice´s personality was based on reality and how much was speculation and creative freedom.
I don´t want to say too much as not to spoil the experience. The language is beautiful and there is so much wisdom hidden in this very short book but I think what stood out to me the most was: "I think I know what childhood´s for. It´s to give us a bank of happy memories against future suffering" I also think that this quote pretty much sums up the substance of this play.
A modern Masterpiece! And now I have to go and watch the trailer again...
